i didn't hear anything about Brad Pitt and Jen Aniston owning the rights. sounds silly. but i don'tm know. i do know Tim Burton is attached as the director and that Johnny Depp is a front-runner for the part of Willy Wonka. it's almost a sure bet. check out the new Entertainment Weekly. they discuss it a bit. personally--i want Haley Joel Osment as Charlie and Cristopher Walken as his Grandpa. and tons of CGI duplicated skateboarding Wee-men [from Jackass] as the oompa-loompas! any other cast suggestions?!
